The Bisbee Vine at St. Patrick Church

As most would suspect, the above may be accurate and concise but grossly over simplified. Why else did it take 10 years to complete an 80’ mural? For starters I got the idea when I was 75. Everything takes a bit longer at that age. My dedicated apprentice helper Roxan and I were only 15 months into the project  when my very own “Baja Bug” ran over my leg, causing a compound fracture. Needless to say, the wall project was put on hold for many months. Also Roxan, being a working gal, was only able to apprentice (mix concrete) a couple of days per month. I too had many irons in the fire.
